Surprisingly good film. Definitely archetypal in the sense that it's a Hero's Journey, but well shot enough to make it rise above cliche. The car chase near the end is a masterclass in editing. However, the dialogue is a little weak. Otherwise, a fairly good film.

Extremely similar. The climactic car chase looks exactly like Michael Mann would have done. The younger Mann doesn't quite have the fluidity of movement in most scenes, but the visual storytelling remains top-notch. For a first time director, this is fairly impressive on the technical level
